Evaluating EBP Assignments
Many factors influence how successfully an EBP Project is implemented and evaluated. As noted in this week’s Learning Resources, using a translation framework can facilitate effective implementation and the evaluation of outcomes. As you complete Application 4, revisit the evidence-based practice model or framework you selected for your EBP Assignment (Application 2). How does the model or framework facilitate the evaluation of outcomes? Would another model or framework better meet the needs of your project?
NURS 8410 Application 4 – Evaluating EBP Assignments
- Continue (from this week’s Discussion) to:
- Identify an appropriate method for evaluating your outcomes.
- Develop new practice guidelines based on the possible results of the evaluation.
- Create, if appropriate, new standards of care that would be based on the new practice guidelines.
- Analyze the impact of implementing change in your practice environment, including the factors that need to be considered regarding stakeholders and end users.
- Summarize the methods you would use to ensure that those are adequately addressed.
- Identify the desired outcomes of your EBP Assignment.
- Describe any macro or micro systems issues that may inhibit implementation and strategies for resolving those issues.
- Explain how resolving your EBP Assignment issue will improve quality and patient safety.
- Describe evaluation strategies.
- Formulate new practice guidelines based on the possible results of the evaluation of outcomes.
- Describe, if appropriate, new standards of care relevant to the new practice guidelines.
